Middle Way Wellness
Licensed Clinician, Middle Way Wellness
Middle Way Wellness is a private practice in Ferndale, Michigan. We bring together therapy, yoga, and somatic work because we believe the body and mind are never really separate, and that good care meets people where they actually live: in their nervous systems, their relationships, and their daily lives.
We're a small, intentional team, and we hold ourselves to three commitments that shape everything we do. We think a practice can only offer its clients as much depth and steadiness as it offers the people working inside it, so we've built our culture around that idea.
Depth, steadiness, and whole-person attention for the people we work with.
A practice that invests in the people doing the work and supports their clinical and personal growth.
Rooted connection to Ferndale and the wider Michigan community we serve.
We're looking for a fully licensed clinician to join our team, either part-time or full-time. This is a hybrid position: some in-person availability at our Ferndale office is expected, alongside virtual sessions with clients across Michigan.
We're especially interested in clinicians who bring one of the following into their clinical work:
If you're drawn to this kind of integrative, whole-person work, and you're looking for a small, community-oriented practice, we'd love to talk with you.
This role is also a great fit if you're thinking about what comes next in your career, whether that's growing into a larger role within Middle Way Wellness over time, or building the experience and confidence to start a practice of your own one day.
Part-time clinicians are paid $55/hour for client sessions; full-time clinicians are paid $60/hour. Each clinical hour also earns an additional third of an hour of paid administrative time, compensated at that same rate, so a full caseload comes with built-in, paid time for notes, coordination, and the behind-the-scenes work good care requires. Based on a 48-week clinical year, here's what that looks like:
$35,200–$42,240/yr
10–12 client hours/week
$69,120+/yr
18+ client hours/week
Full-time clinicians also receive a 6% retirement match and 3 weeks of paid time off, together worth $8,640+ a year at the full-time minimum. That brings total full-time compensation to $77,760+ per year.
Being a clinician here isn't only about the client hour. We actively support clinicians who want to build something of their own within the practice, whether that's a class, a workshop, or an ongoing group, and bring it out into the Ferndale community. It's part of how we live out community care: creating spaces where people can find us, and each other, before they ever need therapy.
Past examples from our team include a Gottman-informed communication workshop for couples, a beginner meditation series, and free community yoga classes hosted at local Ferndale spots. If you have an idea for a class, workshop, or group you'd want to run, we want to hear it, and we'll help you bring it to life.
Yoga, meditation, and movement-based classes open to the community.
Focused offerings built around your specialty: couples communication, anxiety and the nervous system, mindfulness fundamentals.
Recurring groups that build community and connection around the populations you care about most.
